[Regression] changeset command fails if there is a side project without a name in package.json that is not intended to be published #2336
Description
The name field in package.json is optional. If there is no reason to distribute the project's source code, such as in sample projects or package websites, there is little reason to explicitly add a name. If you forget to add private: true and accidentally run npm publish, the project's source code becomes a digital tattoo. However, if such a project exists in the repository, the changeset command fails as follows:
pnpm changeset
$ changeset

pnpm init has an option to create a package.json file while omitting the name field.
